SMSF (commercial)

Designed to provide loans to authorised Australian Self-Managed Super Funds (SMSF) for the purpose of purchasing residential or commercial (non-specialised) investment property.

The borrowing structure involves a loan to a SMSF Trustee with a Security Custodian purchasing the residential or commercial investment property on behalf of the SMSF. This Security Custodian, which must be a "bare trustee”, then holds the property as an asset on trust for the SMSF, which may be transferred to the SMSF at a future date.

The loan is secured against the investment property and while the loan is ideally self-servicing from the rental income derived from the property, servicing may also come from any other income received from unencumbered assets held by the SMSF or additional contributions made to the SMSF.

The loan is limited in recourse, with the Bank’s right against the SMSF limited to the Bank’s right as mortgagee in relation to the property. There is no recourse to any other assets of the SMSF.
